I have only flew it once on 2S 500 mAh 75C (total AUW = 103 grs) but without any E-Clip on motors 1 + 2
I had previoulsy a crash with the older frame hat I destroyed but I never saw that these 2 were missing…
(you can see the maiden without E-Clips here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDZhSKS1EX8)

My last build. Its my first build with osd and a separated receiver. Found it very easy to assemble and configure. Didn’t reflash the board. Just tested it a while ago and broke one motor after just 3 batteries…

This carbon frame can mount 8,5mm motors directly to the carbon frame, but it’s a really tight fit, and that causes scratches on the metal, and its very easy to open the plastic bottom cap if you’re not very careful. So i found the 7mm motors with the rubber ring are better mounted.

I like the osd feature a lot, but i have to find what’s a healthy volt range for my batteries. When giving throttle it can easily drop under 3v…

I received mine with 2 bad FETS - though replaced them and got it working great, now whenever I plug in a battery, the RF motor blips on for a second. Aside from that, it’s a nice FC -Very smooth flying, but I disabled the OSD because it’s a little resource pig, and except for tuning thru OSD, I find it very laggy/latent and utterly useless in a <50g brushed quad. Nice to see the voltage, though not worth the power consumption hit.

Aaa:

When giving throttle it can easily drop under 3v…

I had the same issue - after disabling the OSD, I get a solid +3min on 65mm props and (Fast) motors using 500mah batteries. I personally think the voltage/current detection on these boards are not really reliable, so I don’t use it.

I don’t know about the range of error of voltage metering in this board. I’ll take some references with a multitester to see how accurate it is, at least when zero throttle. Don’t have a reference also about power comsumption of the osd. i’m used to 2:30, 3min flight times in other builds, and i’m confident it can get 3 minutes with a 500mah battery

And about the latency, i thought about that, but didn’t notice anything. That may be just that i’m not an experienced pilot. For now i’ll keep using it, that’s something new for me

I wanted something quieter for indoors and already had spare FC, VTX, and RX. So I brought a set of Racerstar 1103B 8000kv, a 10A 4 in 1 and the cheapest frame I could find from my local website (next day delivery!)

The prop guard ended up being aluminum and still had sharp edges. So to protect the walls and floor, I just wrapped them up with fighter’s tape.

I scavenged an extra long wifi antenna cable and it just seems to stay in that shape. Also added an 8 led bar, because why not.

Not actually done yet, and using old parts (blheli 14.9 is the most recent firmware the escs can run… oh and while they say oneshot125 on them they don’t seem to like anything but pwm!), but we already had the parts so what the hell?

210 frame, “Micro F4 20x20” cloned from something Omnibus F4 FC, PDB that came with the frame, Hobbymate 2204 2300(?)kv motors, Hobbymate 15a ESCs (which call themselves Blueseries 12a…), will have a FRSKY RX of the next step up from XM+ (diversity and telemetery and 1.5km range!), plus whatever AIO camera/vtx I hot glue in for now. Eventually a swift/microswift and an eachine 25/200/600mw VTX I forget the name of.

It actually flies now! My 550mah 3s batteries don’t appreciate it much (no surprise there), and while the 850mah 2s deals with it well enough there isn’t an amazing amount of thrust (no surprise there either), but it does fly!

Not a quad, but I thought I’d share. Used my old 007 goggles and made them into something new (now I have fatsharks, so I didn’t want the old goggles to collect dust). Used cardboard from a shoebox, and some hotglue! Wired a DVR to it so I can record footage. It’s been put through countless hours of use and tons of travelling (Kinda abused it; I just throw it in my bag ) I love it because I can bring people on “rides” with me. Helps them understand “drones” better, and that we fliers aren’t spies

Completed my Atom Mini 83. The FC has PDB tabs and would not fit underneath the canopy. So I spent the week goofing around with the stack, trying different combinations so that it would fit everything, cover all the electronics and still be compact. It was a fun little puzzle.

I ended up moving the ESC below the frame and sandwiching it with the FC. Still a small stack so hoping COG isn’t too far off. The ESC are 15A, so also hoping overheating will not be an issue with 1105 motors.

70 grams without battery, but I am using all motor screws, aluminum stack screws, nuts and spacers. Also have a LED, beeper and a longer then needed power connector(not pictured). It’s not light, but hopefully durable and full featured.

So awhile back a caught a good deal on the Eachine FB90. Out of the box I’ts not so great. After a few mods it flew better but still not great. So I picked up a new frame and threw the FB90 guts into it. It flys great now. The best part is the swap was really easy. All I needed was some double sided foam tape and a phillips screwdriver I did a quick video on the new frame and build.

DYS 3045 props, hovers at 9%.
Spintech motors stay cool even zooming around and punching, but the battery… the poor battery suffers. Eats an 850mAh bng “80c” in 2 minutes. Same battery lasts 4 minutes with 3025 props, with around the same punch but a much saner 40% hover.
